crystalgl - next-gen crystal (KDE) window decoration

Website: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=18983
License: GPL
Vendor: The KDE-RedHat Project
Description:
Crystal-GL is the next generation of the crystal window decoration theme.
By using OpenGL to render itself, it simulates refraction and light mapping!

It looks very similar to crystal, but has more eye-candy and smooth animations.

* Grabs your wallpaper and simulates bended glass, little lighting. You are able to specify the ior. ;)
* Support for button themes. Feel free to swamp me with cool themes. :D The themes are the same than the ones in crystal.
Knifty button theme by Enso

Disadvantages:
* Needs a working GL subsystem!!! Don't blame me, if yours is broken!
* Be careful on nvidia systems, if under load, the gl subsystem may become *real* slow, so my deco.
* Needs KDE >=3.2 and QT>=3.2 to compile.
* May be slower than any other deco
* May be fat
* May make you drool, and you might forget to eat, sleep or even breath!
